overhead is significant

Keep in mind the overhead for Qwests ADSL2+ is also significant. I can say from personal experience that the 20mbit in reality is closer to 16-17 actual throughput for virtually all users. Contrasted with Comcast where the 16mbit tier is actually provisioned at 17.6mbit and more often than not that's what you got.

You would need 3mbps upload for the overhead of a 100mbps download.
